Deutscher Sparkassen- und Giroverband e.V. Sparkassen-Schulservice

The Savings Banks School Service, provided by the German Savings Banks Association, has been supporting schools and teachers with financial education offers since 1975. The Savings Banks School Service promotes the handling of money and finances among children and youths with free of cost and free of advertising educational materials for primary and secondary schools – according to the guiding principle “Finanzbildung für alle” (Financial education for everyone).

Via the digital platform www.sparkassen-schulservice.de, the Savings Banks School Service provides more than 200 materials for around 30 lessons on financial education in schools, helping teachers to make their lessons effective and interesting. Materials include easy-to-understand PDFs, interactive quizzes, educational videos and complete lesson plans.

In addition, the Savings Banks School Service offers free school lectures for secondary schools, which can be booked independently by schools. The school lectures focus on young people's everyday financial lives and teach basic, real-life skills. All lectures are held by neutral experts and cover various topics relating to money, accounts, cards and finances – without advertising.
